Table plus (and table btw) have a fields attribute that you could
theoretically generate but usually it's going to expect there to at
least be a method on the model that responds. Also, I'm not sure the
data you're talking about is something best stuck in a table unless
there's always x number of event kinds.
wait.. you've basically got a set table of event kinds and want to
have a column for each that pulls the appropriate company event. add
a named_scope to company model that grabs event based on event kind id
and a function to return name calls for each (otherwise it gets ugly),
then you can do something like this.
def event_model_list
list = []
EventKind.all.each { |ek| list << "event_by_kind(#{ek.id})" }
list
end
fields="regularfields,#{event_model_list.join(',')}" will get you a
column for each but defining each view
still pretty ugly but might work for what you're after.
